The Blind Company in Cupar has more than 50 years of experience, working primarily with homeowners across our local areas. We can help with new and replacement blinds, offering a quick and reliable service.
We often get asked a lot of the same questions, so below we have compiled these into an FAO section, which also has some useful tips and advice on how to get the best use from your blinds.
Our FAQs
-
Do we offer devices to keep the operating cords out of the reach of children?Yes, we can supply child safety devices for blinds. These safety devices keep blind cords securely out of children’s reach.
-
How do you match blind with carpets and your other décor?Matching blinds with carpets is quite easy. Blinds in any colour or pattern will look great with any neutral walls and flooring. Stick to plain blinds if you’re going for a striped carpet or walls. If you’re matching blinds to a coloured carpet or walls, you’ll want to see how the two work together before making a decision.
-
Do we offer a no-drill solution designed specifically for uPVC windows?Our made-to-measure ‘PerfectFit’ frames are ideal for uPVC windows and doors. The frame simply clicks into place neatly between the glazing and beading, meaning there is no need for screws or drilling. There are no control cords either, so these styles are ideal for a child’s bedroom or nursery. Choose from roller, pleated and metal Venetian blinds, which can all be made to fit snugly into the frame.
-
What blinds do we recommend for bay windows?Bay windows can make a real statement with the right window dressing. Vertical blinds can be made with a curved headrail which allows them to follow the shape of the bay. If you would prefer to have a single blind fitted at each window instead you can position your blinds at differing heights, giving a stylish effect. Choose from hundreds of options available within our made-to-measure collection.
-
Will blinds help to keep you warm in winter?Having blinds on a single glazed window can reduce heat loss through windows by up to 40%. At a time when energy bills are rising, this can help you save money on your energy bills. Our wide range of thermal fabrics and linings help retain heat in your home. All our Roman blinds come with the option of thermal lining, which will make your room feel much cosier.
-
What blinds do we recommend for skylight windows?Skylights can be a quirky feature of your decor. Our roller, Venetian and pleated blinds can all be made to fit skylights, thanks to our Easi-stop system. You can also choose from a wide selection of VELUX® Roller blinds.

What blinds are best for bathrooms?Blinds you choose for your bathroom need to be hard wearing and practical enough to ensure they won’t warp under the moist and steamy conditions. PVC vertical blinds are the perfect choice, thanks to water resistant properties which are purpose designed for the job in hand. Perfect for bathrooms and kitchens, waterproof blinds and shutters do what they say on the tin! They will repel water, are mould resistant, and are easy to clean. Just because a blind is waterproof doesn’t mean it can’t look good too! Here at The Blind Company, we have many different styles of waterproof blinds, which are super stylish and are available in a wide range of styles, colours and patterns so it will be easy for anyone to find their perfect blind.
